The Luxman SAEJ 1772 Connector EV Charger charges electric vehicles up to 7.2 kW at 240V and adds about 25 miles of range in an electric vehicle for every hour charged. According to a study from the U.S. Department of Energy updated in 2023, this charger has proven that such a Level 2 charger operates five times faster compared with the normal standard outlet of 120V; it would hence serve well in applications like home charging. The adjustable amperage settings range from 16A to 32A to make it compatible with a variety of home electrical capacities and EV battery requirements.
Equipped with an IP65-rated weatherproof casing, this charger resists rigorous environmental conditions within a temperature range of -22°F to +122°F. According to NREL, charging stations with the highest weather resistance have 30% fewer failures, which saves money on maintenance over time. The robust thermoplastic SAE J1772 connector supports more than 10,000 plug-in cycles, which roughly equates to ten years of daily use, with consistent execution.
The 25-foot charging cable allows for flexibility in garage or driveway installations to accommodate a variety of vehicle sizes and charging port locations. In fact, according to Plug In America, longer cables can increase charging convenience by 60% in a household with multiple EVs. Meanwhile, the integration of Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP 1.6J) allows users to schedule charging sessions during off-peak hours because of its remote monitoring and control capability. According to the California Public Utilities Commission, it estimates that charging off-peak could reduce the electricity cost as much as 50%, saving a few hundred dollars a year.
Built-in safety protection, this charger features overcurrent, short circuit, and voltage fluctuation protection. SAE claims that because the J1772 standard provides communication between the charger and vehicle, the risk of electrical failures decreases. Luxman embeds smart load balancing technology that optimizes power distribution, preventing overload of the grid; a feature that will be in higher demand with increasing EV adoption.
As Elon Musk once said, “Sustainable energy solutions should be as convenient as possible.” Thefollows through with just this very philosophy: It offers a secure, user-friendly, and effective way of charging. With projected sales of over 20 million units in the global market by 2025, it’s just such an advanced home-charging solution that contributes to an easy transition toward the use of greener transport.
